Gypsy and Twink

I'm feeling a little hungover today following an evening of Christmas silliness, so please excuse me if I seem a little lacklustre! Just wanted to point you in the direction of Gypsy and Twink on Etsy, whom I found by the the way of More Ways to Waste Time.

Happy Friday!

The Rapture

Daisy Mutt and the Red Ants

I've recently received some paintings back which have been with a gallery following a couple of shows - hence, I'm uploading them here one by one.

Today's is 'Daisy Mutt and the Red Ants', which I painted following a conversation I had with a friend's daughter about how we both loved to climb trees. She'd been telling me about how she'd spent the summer sitting up in the tree tops fending off red ants.

The Newlyweds

This is a painting of a couple of friends of mine, just after they had got married in 2005. It's painted (like all my others) in Gloss on MDF board, float mounted in a white gesso frame, 11" x 11". Available on etsy soon.
